It's a Girl Thing

I am fully convinced that getting away with a group of girl friends for a weekend is one of the best forms of therapy.  Myself and four friends left work early on Friday (Ok--insert Gentry doesn't work this time of year) and headed to KC for a weekend getaway.  We planned the trip around First Fridays, an event held in downtown Kansas City the first full weekend of each month. First Fridays features multiple warehouses full to the brim with awesome antiques, refurbished items, and every kind of cute & crafty thing imaginable for sale.  It's the kind of place that you walk in thinking you don't need anything and walk out with five items you couldn't live without.  It's a girl thing.

We stayed on the Plaza which made for great options for food and fun in the evenings.  Of course we stayed up too late and definitely overate.  It's a girl thing.  We laughed so hard we cried, shared life stories, and talked about poop.  Again, a girl thing.  We shopped till we dropped, always had dessert, and drank a bottle of wine.  Yep, girl thing.

  We jammed out to music, crammed four in the back of a car, and photo bombed pictures (see above top right).  Love these hilarious girls.

Somehow three of us left with wine racks :) 

We enjoyed a sunny day, truck vendor food, and taking silly pictures of the girl who fell victim to falling asleep in the car.  It's a girl thing. Thanks for a fun, girly weekend! Loved every minute of it!
